Walhalla Zum Seidlwirt
Voices in harmony - artistic, creative & authentic - with a dash of Berlin swag
Voices in harmony - artistic, creative & authentic - with a dash of Berlin swag
As students of opera singing at HfM Hanns Eisler in Berlin we founded the multi-national MGV Walhalla zum Seidlwirt (including Turkey, Israel, Austria, England).
We give the genre "MännerGesangsVerein" an upgrade for the 21st century. The core characteristics of an MGV - the fun of making music together, exuberance and authenticity - have remained. We added classical vocal harmony, artistic integrity and a portion of self-irony.
This gives Walhalla zum Seidlwirt a unique lightness and openness beyond traditional dogmas. Our repertoire is correspondingly diverse. From classical music and operetta to barbershop songs & chansons and folk songs from the singers home countries, we have something to your taste.
On top of that, our audiences always play a part in our performances and we get them on their feet. In short, Walhalla zum Seidlwirt guarantees artistic intensity, humorous authenticity and lots of unexpectedness - for EVERYONE!
